Year Built: 1907
Architect: Gibb and Waltz
Style: Prairie
A non-conformist himself, Henry Shaler Williams was likely influenced by the work non-conforming atchitect Frank Lloyd Wright when he had his long, horizontally oriented home built hugging the ground. Low ceilings inside provide a feeling of intimacy in an otherwise expansive design.
Henry Shaler Williams was one of the original professors in the Cornell department of geology.
